Canadian National - "Rapido" Wet Noodle (1961)
Rapido. Introduced by CN in 1965 it became synonymous with fast schedules, fine service and an exceptional dedication to the passenger. The Rapido initially ran between Toronto and Montreal, and later between Montreal and Quebec City, Montreal and Ottawa, and Toronto and Ottawa. CN refurbished five of its Lake-series parlour cars into new Club Cars, featuring 2+1 seating and drinks served at your seat. At least three of these cars had the distinctive RAPIDO name in bold Helvetica lettering emblazoned on the side. In 1971 the cars were modified again with the expansion of the drinks cabinet into a full galley, the seating capacity reduced to 38, and the seats themselves given a modern refit with fold-down tray tables for at-seat dining. And Club Deluxe service was born, with full-course, hot meals delivered to your seat. In their day, the Club cars represented the pinnacle of day travel in Canada.
